LUCKY BLACK-EYED PEAS
Looking for a way to "kick up" those black-eyed peas you eat on New Year's day for good luck? This recipe was a prize winner in a recipe contest held by our state newspaper years ago. They called this the "peppiest, meatiest, best mess o' black eyes you're likely to taste!" Frankly, I am not a black-eye fan, but this recipe is so sensational, I gobble it up! I like it best served over cooked rice for a delicious meal. On New Year's Day, however, everyone will want just enough to guarantee good luck for the year to come.

Steps:
- Saute chopped onions in oil in a 3-quart sauce- or soup-pot; set aside.
- Sort peas carefully to remove stones and dirt, rinse well. Dump peas in pot with onion; add half the garlic cloves and the ham hocks, bay leaves, chopped parsley, cayenne pepper, Tabasco sauce and black pepper.
- Cover with water; cook on high until just boiling, and turn down heat to low, to simmer. Add HOT water as necessary to keep peas covered. Stir occasionally.
- Cut smoked sausage into 3/4-inch slices, then cut slices in quarters. After peas have simmered for about 1-1/2 hours, remove ham hocks and set aside to cool. Add sausage and remaining garlic. (It is not necessary to cut up garlic. It'll fall apart -- and your fingers won't smell for days.) When ham hocks have cooled enough to handle, remove skin and discard. Remove meat from bones and gristle from meat. Shred meat and return to pot. Return large bones to pot. Cook on low for another hour or until peas melt in your mouth, keeping them covered with water and stirring as needed to prevent sticking. Peas should be like a bean soup with plenty of liquid, or you can smash up a few peas to create a smooth, thick consistence.
- Carefully, salt to taste. Remove bay leaves and bones. Serve with a dash of vinegar (malt, if possible) and steamed white rice (to cool the palate -- optional). Makes 30 1/2-cup servings. Recipe may be halved. Do not freeze leftovers.
LUCKY BLACK EYED PEAS WITH RICE & BACON
A light, easy dish for when you're ready to take a break from heavy meals. This recipe is supposed to serve 6 but it didn't go that far at MY table. No reason to stop at half the bell pepper - it could have used more. Also that "dash" of cayenne should be increased by quite a bit!

BLACK-EYED PEA LUCKY DIP
Three ingredients and 20 minutes is all it takes to have a year of good-tasting good luck! I serve this every New Year's Day to a grateful family who otherwise turn up their noses at black-eyed peas. The rule is: You have to eat at least 3 peas for a year of good luck.

Steps:
- Combine the peas and tomatoes in a saucepan and set over low heat.
- Cut the Velveeta into 1-inch hunks and add to the pan. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the Velveeta melts. This is a slow process -- for the first 10 minutes, it looks as if it will never happen. But don't be tempted to turn up the heat, as the mixture burns easily. (Trust me on this.).
- Remove from heat and serve. The mixture may seem thin at first, but it thickens well over time, and as it is reheated. Serve with tortilla chips or scoop-shaped corn chips.
- Eventually the dip gets so thick that chips break as you scoop it, so add a little of the reserved tomato liquid, if needed.
